Brayan Bello and Liam Hendriks are due to imminently join the Red Sox following short rehab stints, while Lucas Giolito is hopefully right behind them, though he still has some kinks to work out.

We’re not even a month into the Red Sox season and the trees in Boston are only just starting to leaf. So why does it feel like the season’s vibes have already shifted multiple times? Ugly losses follow dominant pitching performances. Strikeouts and errors pile up and then lead into defensively flawless 1-0 victories. And as the Sox head back home to take on the other Sox, they find themselves right back to where they started: .500.

Unlike most Cuban ballplayers, though, Grandal did not defect from the island as a professional. Instead, his family was granted entry to the United States when was 10-years-old, after they were selected to receive green cards through a now-threatened State Department lottery program.

Photo by Julio Aguilar/Getty Images Is Tanner Houck tipping his pitches? Honestly, I kind of hope he is, because that would be better than accepting that he’s just this bad right now. Houck’s performance last night was arguably the worst start in Red Sox history, as no other Sox starter had ever given up so many earned runs (11) in just 2.1 innings.

Photo by Billie Weiss/Boston Red Sox/Getty Images It’s really not hard to imagine a scenario wherein Wilyer Abreu isn’t on the Red Sox right now. Between Abreu, Jarren Duran, Masataka Yoshida, Ceddanne Rafaela, and Roman Anthony, the Red Sox appeared to have too many outfielders, and I know I was waiting for a logjam-clearing trade for most of the offseason. But Abreu ignored the rumors, kept working on his game, and has made tremendous strides.

Merloni laughing at the idea of the Sox and Cardinals being rivals, and he's right that no one thinks of them that way. But they've met in the World Series FOUR times. They should be rivals! There's something weirdly broken about the structure of baseball that they aren't.

Get you friends who look at you the way Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer look at Kristian Campbell 😁 https://t.co/EQshH3TUNZ
